there must be lots of pride there. yes, good afternoon. not a bad day for around or two, yes, good afternoon. not a bad day foraround ortwo, is yes, good afternoon. not a bad day for around or two, is it? as you can imagine, lots of pride and proud faces. the green behind me were matthew fitzpatrick would have spent hours perfecting his game. today he is waking up in america, if he has been to sleep, realising all the hard work has paid off. at 27 he is the us open champion, his first major. this club means a lot to him and brookline does as well. in 2013 he won the amateur championship there and a replica of that trophy is in sight at the club has, so to the golf bag he donated. as you can imagine, replace from last night all over the screens in the clubhouse. he is the top of the clubhouse and it is going to be some homecoming in a few weeks when he is back for the scottish open.

a few weeks when he is back for the scottish open-— time for a look at the weather. here's darren bett. i want to focus on temperatures because over the weekend our heat came to an end, but we still have record—breaking temperatures for a while in spain and france and that pushed its way across austria, switzerland, the czech republic and germany. but how things have changed because today we are forecasting 22 degrees, a drop of 20 degrees in san sebastian in biarritz and france. not only is it much cooler across good parts of europe, but we have got clusters of rain and thunderstorms affecting some areas as well. in the uk we are seeing more clout over the next few days, but ahead of that there is strong sunshine and light winds and temperatures will be rising, perhaps not quite reaching the 33 degrees we peaked at last week. but untiljust recently those high temperatures were in hampshire in the sunshine. a

very pleasant 22 or 23 degrees in southern parts of england and wales, perhaps even into eastern areas of scotland. but we have high pollen levels in many parts of scotland and very high in northern ireland, england and wales. lots of sunshine through the rest of the day, but look at that change coming into the north—west of scotland. we have got cloud and rain for a while which will push its way over scotland and northern ireland. temperatures dipping away to seven or 8 degrees, but it will be a warmer night underneath the clout in scotland and northern ireland. there will not be too much rain here for tomorrow. equally, we could see a glimmer of sunshine. some of that cloud will push into the far north of england. the rest of england and wales seem hardly any cloud and wind at all and those temperatures continuing to rise, up to 25 degrees in the midlands and the south—east of england. 17 or 18 in scotland and

northern ireland. as we head into wednesday, more of a breeze in northern scotland, keeping more clout in northern ireland. but more sunshine for eastern scotland which will give those temperatures are bruised. with the sunshine and very light winds in england and wales, the temperatures continue to rise. 28 degrees on wednesday. 0n the temperatures continue to rise. 28 degrees on wednesday. on thursday we could have some hot weather in the south—east of the uk and it could make 30 degrees. then things will start to change because by friday we have got more showers around and the pressure will be dropping on friday and into the weekend. that means we get rain coming in from the west, followed by showery weather and so much cooler weather this weekend. that's all from the bbc news at one, so it's goodbye from me and on bbc one we nowjoin the bbc�*s news teams where you are. 13—year—old milo loves drumming, drama, and defeating his enemies in video games. four years

sheffielld's matt fitzpatrick has put his name in the history books — with the biggest victory of his career at the us 0pen. fitzpatrick played what he called one of the best shots of his life on the 18th from the bunker, to somehow reach the green. that forced his playing partner will zalatoris to make this putt to force a play—off, but he missed. fitzpatrick winning the title byjust one shot, and becoming the first englishman to win the us open sincejustin rose in 2013. i certainly worked hard for it and where i grew up wrong, that's the mentality of everyone there, you don't find that it is upper—class at all, it is and i can't think of the words, been out the country too

long, but certainly there is an underdog mentality and you work hard and you work for what you get. england head coach eddiejones has named a 36—player squad for the tour of australia next month. it features 12 players from the weekend's premiership final between leicester tigers and saracens, including a return for billy vunipola. and the remarkable revival of danny care's england career continues. . . the 35—year—old harlequins scrum—half won the last of his 84 caps in 2018, but featured for england against the barbarians at twickenham yesterday. he's named alongside eight uncapped players for the three—test tour. danny has always been a really good player, but the game is changing and it keeps on going back and forth. we saw the final on saturday, 96 kicks, which is like the 2007 world cup final but then you watch super rugby finals and you watch other games,

there is this ability to have quick rucks and the good attacking teams can recover and there is no one better in the game in the moment than danny care. natalie metcalf will take on the england captaincy for the team's commonwealth games title defence in birmingham next month, as a 12—player squad has been named. england shocked hosts australia to win a first commonwealth gold in 2018. seven players from that victorious side have once again been picked by head coachjess thirlby. metcalf replaces serena guthrie, who announced her pregnancy and retirement from netball in march. it was a privilege and one thing that we are really focused on is what we did in the commonwealth games in 2018, but for us it is the next chapter and the roses have been really successful, and it's about being in the moment and present and enjoying thejourney and

being in the moment and present and enjoying the journey and embracing the journey and that is what we want to do and if we do that we are capable of achieving anything. tottenham have signed former midfielderjed spence and she had spent the last 1a years at chelsea and was the longest serving player with 238 appearances. during the stint she won five league titles, three fa cup, two continental cops and one community shield. the world swimming body has voted to stop transgender athletes from competing tra nsgender athletes from competing in transgender athletes from competing in women's elite races. it means transgender athletes will have to have transitioned by the age of 12 to be for women's events, following the vote yesterday by the members and the lgbt advocacy group called the new policy discriminatory, harmful and unscientific. and it's the last championships on the grass court season before

said that the uk government regretted this episode and apologised on behalf of the families of these men for any offence caused by them and it stressed that their activities in afghanistan were not related to the uk government and that their travel to afghanistan was against the uk government's travel advice but interestingly yesterday we had another separate statement released by the uk embassy to afghanistan which is currently in doha, saying that the uk government did not support any form of political violence aimed at overthrowing the authorities here in afghanistan and it seems likely that that statement was part of the negotiations for the release of these men. negotiations for the release of these men-— negotiations for the release of these men. �* ., �* ~ ., ., these men. but we don't know what these men. but we don't know what these men. but we don't know what these men were _ these men. but we don't know what these men were doing _ these men. but we don't know what these men were doing or— these men. but we don't know what these men were doing or why - these men. but we don't know what these men were doing or why they l these men were doing or why they were detained. ida.

the people involved and who were detained and a senior taliban source told me the release of these five people means there are no further uk nationals who are currently in detention in afghanistan any more. many thanks. some breaking news to bring you at home from north yorkshire police who say that a helicopter has crashed into a field in a village in north yorkshire and emergency services are at the scene of the incident which is off ben funnell road, which is near burton in lonsdale and the incident happened shortly before midday we are told and people are being strongly urged to avoid the area, so when we get that we will bring you more as soon as we can.

earlier our business correspondence was at liverpool lime street station and explained how the industrial action has got to this point. i was grabbing a coffee and talking to someone in the queue and she's come overfrom canada to someone in the queue and she's come over from canada and the plan was to take the train around the uk and that will not be happening and it's one example of plans being heavily disrupted in the week ahead. how did we get here? the main rail union and rail providers have not been able to come to a deal over pay and conditions and so from tomorrow, 40,000 workers will walk out. let's have a look at how it is set to affect you. it will be from tomorrow and there will be more strikes on thursday and saturday and 20% of services will be running and they will only run between half seven in the morning and half six at night. understandably the advice on those daysis understandably the advice on those days is to not travel unless you absolutely have to. have a look here. this is what the overall

picture is like and where the services are running you will see there is connectivity between the main cities but heading out to more rural areas, main cities but heading out to more ruralareas, it main cities but heading out to more rural areas, it will be in hospital —— impossible to hop on a train so in england in places like penzance and bournemouth in the south, you won't be up to take a train at all and in the north—west that includes places like blackpool and chester and north of the border in scotland you will see those lines are running from london to the big cities of glasgow and edinburgh north of the central belt, aberdeen, inverness, the criticism is that they are completely cut off and in wales, it's only the south around cardiff where there will be any services, one from cardiff to merthyr tydfil and that one to the severn tunnel but that is it for wales. and it's notjust but that is it for wales. and it's not just the strike but that is it for wales. and it's notjust the strike days that but that is it for wales. and it's not just the strike days that will be affected, the wraparound days, we only expect 60% of services to run them, so do check out whether your services are going ahead if you are travelling on those days and expect extra passengers. if you already

bought a ticket, what are your rights? if your cancelled you are entitled to a refund but you will be able to travel on other services if they are available. worth getting in touch with your provider if you bought in advance ticket. the advice is not to travel unless you actually have to do. it's notjust morning commuters effective and it's also people try to get to exams or people try to get nhs appointment and there are some big concerts and glastonbury festival coming up and the england test match as well so all of these events will be affected and lots more people getting in their cars, so expect bottlenecks around the events.

now it's time for all of the news across the uk. now, a new device which could transform the lives of people with tourette syndrome is being described as a game—changer. the wearable gadget helps to reduce the involuntary sounds and movements, known as tics, experienced by people with the condition. it's been developed by the university of nottingham and there's been interest from around the world. navtej johal reports. 13—year—old milo loves drumming, drama, and defeating his enemies in video games. four years ago, he was diagnosed with tourette's syndrome. his mum says at the time she was devastated. you sort of go through a period of sort of grief, if i'm honest, and you are scared and you are worried and you are like, what's going to happen? tourette's is a neurological

condition which usually starts in childhood and causes a person to make in voluntary movements and sounds known as tics. if i'm riding the bike, i'm going to tic, i might fall off, i might crash, and i might get hurt or hurt someone else by hitting them with the bike. although symptoms usually improve after several years, there isn't a cure for tourette's. this little device could help to change the life of milo and the estimated more than 300,000 people in the uk with the condition. you can press a button and for a period of time reduce the likelihood that tics are going to occur. without side effects, without adverse events, without having to travel to get treatment. so, it is a massive game changer. the university has now started a national trial to study the effectiveness of the device. the demand to be involved has been overwhelming. i get e—mails every single day from people all over the world from people asking either can

they buy the device now or can they take part in the clinical trial. the hope is that within a few years, the device may be available for wider public use. milo says he's looking to hopefully playing a small part in helping others like him. navteonhal, bbc east midlands today. despite the sunny weather this is often the time the people of their supplies of heating oil. this year, however, there's been a huge increase in the cost of the oil. as dan 0'brien explains, that is having an impact on many people living in rural areas. the west may have basked in the summer sun this week but the winter fuel bills are on the mines in east wiltshire's villages. i fuel bills are on the mines in east wiltshire's villages.— fuel bills are on the mines in east wiltshire's villages. i am dreading it. i reall wiltshire's villages. i am dreading it- i really am _ wiltshire's villages. i am dreading it. i really am and _ wiltshire's villages. i am dreading it. i really am and i _ wiltshire's villages. i am dreading it. i really am and i deftly - wiltshire's villages. i am dreading it. i really am and i deftly won't i it. i really am and i deftly won't be putting the heat is on, i can't afford to have it on. we be putting the heat is on, i can't afford to have it on.— be putting the heat is on, i can't afford to have it on. we are lucky that we have _ afford to have it on. we are lucky that we have a _ afford to have it on. we are lucky that we have a wood _ afford to have it on. we are lucky that we have a wood fire. - afford to have it on. we are lucky that we have a wood fire. just - that we have a wood fire. just t in: to that we have a wood fire. just trying to limp _ that we have a wood fire. just trying to limp through until h0pefuiiy_ trying to limp through until h0pefuiiy oil— trying to limp through until hopefully oil prices - trying to limp through until hopefully oil prices drop i trying to limp through until.

too many children who are exploited by drugs gangs, are being treated as criminals rather than victims, according to a leading children's charity. our home affairs correspondent daniel sandford reports. shouting. smashing down the door to arrest a teenager who's carried out a drive—by shooting in coventry. walk towards me! do it now! walk slowly towards me. keep walking. keep walking! 19—year—old carren monga killed another teenager with a shotgun fired from a stolen car. the boy at the wheel, riaz ahmed, was only 15. both were convicted of murder. two more teenagers involved in the drug—gang violence scarring britain's cities and towns. this sort of activity is nothing less than terrorising a local community, and i think that is the word to use. when you apply class—a drug culture in a local community, this is bringing terror to local streets.

we've been inside a new unit based in birmingham of prosecutors specialising in serious violence and drug crime, often involving young people. lawyers here have the delicate task of working out which arrested teenagers may actually be victims themselves — children who've been forced into drug dealing by gang leaders. what do we look for? and it varies from case to case. there may be physical evidence — the young person may be malnourished, may be living in squalid conditions, evidencing exploitation. it's something jenny experienced first—hand when her 15—year—old son disappeared from home for two weeks, and returned filthy and terrified. for her safety, we've agreed to disguise her identity. she told me the family received this warning from someone linked to a drugs gang. if you go to the police, you're going to end up dead. your son's going to end up dead. your whole family is going to end up dead.

her son had been used by organised criminals to guard and sell drugs 70 miles from home. they'd threatened him and made him think he owed them money. but even though the cps knew he'd been exploited, he still ended up in court. he's a victim and he wasn't being treated like a victim. they're out to penalise — that's what it felt like. get him arrested, charge him with whatever they can — as long as someone is being charged for this crime — that's what it felt like. even if it'sjust a child — a vulnerable child, as well. go! with the battle against county lines in full flow, charities believe that despite new initiatives from the prosecution service, too many children who've been exploited by the drugs gangs are still being criminalised rather than protected. daniel sandford, bbc news, birmingham. now it's time for a look at the weather with darren bett. it is sunny and pleasantly warm today and temperatures aren't going

today and temperatures aren't going to be lifting for many of us in the next few days but these are the temperatures we have today and a very pleasant 22 degrees across parts of england and wales and lady across eastern areas of scotland as well but high or very high pollen levels today. we end with some sunshine this evening but overnight the cloud coming in from the north—west will head into scotland and northern ireland and for a while it will bring some rain. we keep clearer skies for england and wales and light winds so temperatures will dip away to about seven or 8 degrees and it will be milder underneath the cloud for scotland and northern ireland and perhaps not too much rain here during tomorrow, just a few showers but equally some glimpses of sunshine and there will be more cloud in the far north of england but we will keep the light winds and sunny skies across the rest of england and wales and temperatures will continue to climb on tuesday, making 25 degrees across the midlands and the south—east and nearer 17 or 18 for scotland and northern ireland.
